APE Design Ctr Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 Depending upon the size of the area I am drawing in one of my architectural drawings, my scale changes. It is nice on a sheet layer for display purposes, to list the scale. Any way to automatically do this so the scale is shown right on the sheet layer without me using the text tool?

CipesDesign Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 If you insert a "drawing label" object (in the folder called Drafting Tools, in the Object Library) into your drawing it will automatically generate an accurate scale callout. If you are using a viewport you need to insert the drawing label into the "annotations" of that viewport. Quote Link to comment
AndyM Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 Sure, but since each viewport can have a different scale you'll need one for each viewport. Just put a drawing label object (in the drafting tools symbol folder) into viewport annotations. Quote Link to comment
